^Thanks for clearing that up.

I say raise the age to 17 with a parents permission, and 18 without it. If a student is 18 and can drop out on their own, chances are they are in their senior year anyway. I remember a student that I graduated with that dropped out 3 weeks before graduation. Really? 3 weeks? I told the guy, "Just stop coming to school until they basically force you to come. Have an adult friend added to your pick-up-list, to come and check you out of school when you want to leave after that." There are so many ways to get around it without dropping out. No harming offense meant to anyone that drops out, but 3 weeks? Sheesh!
